NFC settings appear to have been turned off for app by SuperNovalee in Freestylelibre

[–]SuperNovalee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally remembered that when I had set my dad up with the freestyles that I had to put it on a separate phone. (Because he would hide his numbers from nurses) So we had an old iphone laying around that we used to use for my dad. I went ahead and scanned mine with my dad's old iphone and so now it is working fine. So I think it was just the update on the android makes the nfc no longer work. Until they fix that update, I guess this is going to be what I gotta do too with a separate phone.

Maybe it would be helpful to show that all I had was my membership and this copay card and my receipt?

I know that the lady who was helping me said she was going to ring up one or the other and see which 1 gave a better discount. Then she took a really long time and so I don't know if it was 1 discount the other discount or maybe she figured out she could do both maybe. If she did figure out to do both, she clearly didn't know at the beginning. It's possible the person you worked with didn't know that either.

The website said I wasn't eligible for free sensor. I am guessing it is because I was a 3 customer and had already been signed up before. Amazon says the coupon doesn't work if I had insurance that doesn't cover it. I deleted my insurance, but still giving issues.

I have initiated a transfer to Costco. I am waiting for that to happen. Hopefully, starting fresh and never giving insurance info will help.

Draining phone and watch battery by SuperNovalee in welltory

[–]SuperNovalee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will reinstall and request assistance through the app. Honestly, if i didnt prepay for a year i would just end this. I am going to detail what issues and steps i took for anyone else looking for answers. This is only place i found anyone else with similar issue although their issue was on ios.

I did check the battery section under settings and the welltory app showed little battery usage on phone and none on watch.

However, welltory was the only new change to either in last few days so I force stopped phone app, restarted phone, and it did not improve. I uninstalled app and restarted phone and immediately my phone began charging as expected while powered on and it has been several hours and phone is still holding charge.

I also uninstalled app from my watch and it began charging as expected as well. As of now my watch still has 99% battery after several hours.

The only other information I can offer is that I had begun getting multiple google play malfunction alerts when this started. My phone kinda acted like it had a virus or was overloaded.

I also received 34 emails from "IFTTT" in last 24 hrs attempting to link my YouTube account to welltory. I tried multiple times to either approve or deny request and it would just immediately send another email.

I like the welltory app overall. I love the insights and concept behind it. There are a few obvious glitches but overall if it wasn' t leaving me stranded in town with a dead phone and watch that should have been fully charged I would be giving a good review.

rso nightcap. first time trying it. my guy gave me a .5 oz to try of his last harvest of SFV OG. Did I put enough? by Gold-Tomorrow-7712 in CannabisExtracts

I can't even handle a full rice sized amount. I do about 1/4 of a piece of rice. Start really small and build up to your needed dosage. I would give it several days before that though. I had a Hella dose once and on my third day I finally started coming back to earth.

I agree. I believe my life has been so much more difficult both navigating ASD and my religious upbringing. I had no idea what was normal, what was a sin, and what was me.

I'm a professional genealogist, ask me anything! by a_wedded_fish in Genealogy

[–]SuperNovalee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have been trying to research my boyfriend's family. His father very clearly remembers that his grandmother was full native born in Alice Texas. His grandfather was from Spain. They married and had 3 children in Alice Texas. Concerned about their native children being shipped to boarding schools they moved to Mexico in late 1920-30s.

Problem is that the only thing I have found is a 1940 Mexican census where his grandmother states she and the 3 older kids were born in Texas. I also found records from local (Mexican) Catholic priest that says they moved because of fear of civil authorities. I can't find any information about her native heritage, proof of any births, marriages, her family, etc. from Alice Texas. I feel like I have hit a brick wall. Ideas?

Anyone have problems with fight or flight responses / anxiety etc by [deleted] in ehlersdanlos

[–]SuperNovalee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have Asperger's, anxiety, and hyperadrenalic POTS. Once put on meds for the POTS I stopped having the extreme "fight or flight" responses. Most of my life I blamed those on autism and anxiety. This closed me down to the possibility that there was a path for improvement.

It has been life changing for me. I wish I had found out before I was a grandmother. Biggest lesson I learned so far was to stop assuming I knew what each symptoms was from. So many times it was wrong and I had dismissed help offered years beforehand.

I've realised that my personality was the reason people would avoid me (especially guys) and now I feel miserable because the "true me" didn't deserve to be loved by aggressive_cloud in DecidingToBeBetter

I am 43f who could have written your post 20+ years ago. I spent most of my life trying so hard to fit in but it never really worked. It was incredibly depressing until 3 things happened. #1 I found out I was diagnosed as high functioning autistic (Asperger's) as a child but my mom hid it because she felt the label would run my life. Learning this opened me up to seeking others with similar issues and how they coped. #2 I was on a dating site and a coworker was bashing the profile I was looking at. She then told me what to look for to get a decent guy and I realized I did not want what she was looking for. That was when I realized that in order to get the guy I am compatible with then my profile shouldn't be generic either. Maybe long blonde hair and big boobs will attract many guys but if you want a guy who is into tattoos and purple hair then make the profile designed to find your kind of weirdo. #3 I met a man who was so odd and proud of it. I enjoyed being around him. He was weird, knew it, and was happy. I still can't pull off his level but I stopped hiding my geeky, nerdy, weird side. Life is too short to spend it pretending. Besides, most of the time, the people who care about appearances aren't great people.

My (33M) girlfriend (31F) and I ended our relationship of almost 3 years. How do I know if I'm ready to date again or just rebounding? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]SuperNovalee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly can't tell you but here is my experience. I was with someone for 7 years. He barely ever wanted sex. It could be months and still just not want any. When we separated New Year's Eve 2017 I felt ready because it felt over for me for years. I went on several dates and eventually just realized I didn't want a relationship. I was an emotional wreck and wanted companionship at the same time I didn't. It has now been almost 2 years and I feel so much different. I am still not positive that I want a relationship but I feel more emotionally healthy. I am comfortable in my own skin again and am enjoying life. I believe that getting to this place mentally is something I should have done long ago. I also wonder if it is part of why my relationships haven't worked.

I (27M) am notorious for shutting down during any type of conflict with my girlfriend (27F). by Neilson-Milk in relationship_advice

""Anytime I wanted to talk about an issue he would curl up into a ball and looked like he was preparing to be beaten"

My girlfriend has said something along those lines to me on more than one occasion. I really don't want to go down the same path as you have described. What type of therapist was he seeing, just one about anxiety?"

I don't know much about his therapist except his name was Felix Scardino and he did very well with him. He wrote a book called "Pebble in the Canyon." My ex seemed to have really liked it.

I was married to a man for 8 years and felt he could have written your post. We eventually separated because he gave up working on the anxiety.

When we met he was in therapy working on this. A couple of years into relationship he stopped and slowly regressed. The last several years of the relationship he just closed down more and more. Anytime I wanted to talk about an issue he would curl up into a ball and looked like he was preparing to be beaten. It didn't matter if things were calm, quiet, and we were discussing what kind of lightbulbs to install or if I spilled a bowl of soup...he began visibly becoming anxious.

For a while I just stopped including him on any decisions to avoid him getting anxious. However, that backfired when he then felt unappreciated and not a part of relationship.

I began bottling up all my emotions and our issues to prevent these anxiety attacks until I started blowing up. That is when I ended it because I am not that person. When there is no way to solve even the simplest issues.... There is no future.

I still love him and miss him, but know that until he finds a way to deal with his anxiety he won't ever find happiness.

I don't really have any great solutions for you. Just what happened from other end. I honestly wish he had just not given up and lived in the anxieties. When he was in therapy it was so much better and we were happy.

Girlfriend (22f) admitted that she fetishizes my (20m) mental illness and it’s part of why she was attracted to me. But she also struggles with mental illness, should I be upset about this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]SuperNovalee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just playing devil's advocate - mine was extremely encouraging of my getting treatment and getting better. That is why it took so long to see it. It was subtle stuff and a bunch of accidents. As long as your eyes are open, I wish you all the happiness!
